One day, when a blind man was walking along the road, he came to a rough section and did not know how to go on.
Fortunately he heard a lame man coming along, and asked him to help him out of his difficulty.
"How can I help you?" answered the lame man. "I can scarcely drag myself along. I am lame, and you look very strong."
"I am strong enough," said the blind man. "I can go if I can only see the way."
"Oh, we may help each other then," said the lame man. "If you take me on your shoulders, we can both get out of the difficulty. I will be the eyes for you, and you will be the feet for me."
"Oh, it's a good idea," said the blind man. "Let's help each other."
So he took his lame friend on his back, and they were able to travel safely and happily.
有一天,一个盲人沿路而行时,碰到一段难走的路,不知道该怎么走下去。
幸好他听见一个瘸子走来,就求他帮助他脱离这困境。
『我怎么有办法帮你呢?』这瘸子回答说。『我自己走路都很困难。我是个跛脚的,而你看来却非常强壮。』
『我是够强壮的,』盲人说。『如果我看得到路,我就能走。』
『哦,那么我们可以互相帮忙,』瘸子说。『如果你能背我,我们两个就可以脱困了。我来当你的眼睛,而你来当我的脚。』
『哦,这是个好主意,』盲人说。『咱们互相帮助吧。』
于是他就背起这位瘸子朋友,这样他们就能安全又愉快地继续行路了。
